Design high-quality product apps, marketing sites, dashboards, and desktop UI. Use for art direction, critique, redesign, hierarchy, layout, typography, color, motion, or lightweight design systems. Do NOT use for logos, illustration-only work, image prompts, or backend-only tasks.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# interface-design-taste

Build interfaces that feel deliberate, product-appropriate, and structurally clear instead of generic, noisy, or under-designed.

## Decision Tree

What kind of design problem are you solving?

- Need a direction from scratch for a site, app, or desktop product
  - Use `references/principles.md` if the brief needs grounding
  - Use `references/style-families.md` if examples would help explore a direction

- Need to improve an existing interface without rewriting everything blindly
  - Read `references/critique-workflow.md`
  - Then branch into the weakest layer: layout, typography, color, motion, or platform fit

- Need stronger hierarchy, composition, spacing, or screen structure
  - Read `references/layout-and-rhythm.md`

- Need better type choices, copy tone, labels, or information cadence
  - Read `references/typography-and-copy.md`

- Need a tighter palette, clearer surfaces, better icons, or more intentional imagery
  - Read `references/color-material-and-iconography.md`

- Need hover/focus/active states, transitions, onboarding flow polish, or motion guidance
  - Read `references/interaction-motion-and-states.md`

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add jpcaparas/skills/interface-design-taste@sha256:1e31c4e7837c659d

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
